Since DS didn't post this with the article, here is a pic of his model for the monument.



You know what....I like it. If he's the best sculptor for the job, by all means, let him do it - and his work looks beautiful. This is America, where the committee behind this has the right to choose whoever they want to - and they made their decision. And if in fact this statement is true*: "I respect the NAACP's right to protest, but they need to review all the facts. There are no African American sculptors that do this type of work in granite. - Then I think they made the right choice.

*I realize that the validity of the statement will be questioned, hence "if".
